They also have a corn cannon that you can fire for a small additional charge, and a concession stand full of seasonal treats.
Scenic Parks
If you like to hike and enjoy being out in the crisp fall air, then a trip to one of the many scenic parks at the Lake of the Ozarks may be a great day for you. Here are a couple that are nearby, and both are accessible by land and by water.
